Administration Guide
When you use db2split to split data, the program writes header
information to each data file that it creates. The Load utility uses
this information to ensure that the data goes to the correct location.
The information is as follows:
- The first line is the node number, which is a digit.
- The next block of entries is the 4 096 entries of the
partitioning map, which is separated by a blank record both above and below
the block.
- The next line is the separator
SQL_HEADER_DATA_SEPARATOR.
- The next line is the number of partitioning keys, which is a digit.
- The next block of entries is made of as many lines as there are
partitioning columns. Each record in this block is as follows:
Key: Name, Type, TypeLength, Start, Length
- The next line is the separator
SQL_HEADER_DATA_SEPARATOR.
